my mom, adalie and i performed at the UVU korean culture night(my mom and I took some Korean dance classes in korea when i was a little girl). adalie did a short(very short, like 20 seconds) drum performance and then my mom and i danced a korean dance called arirang. even though i got very sick two days before so i was feeling really crappy and we only practiced for 3 days, it was worth it to see adalie perform. this girl is born to be a performer!
i wish we had taken pictures of us but as soon as it was over, we headed home and i went to bed!

You all look so lovely! What is the tradition where the kids bow to the grandparents for New Years? I would love to read more posts about Korean culture π
Sarah says
Thank you! that is called jesa, you can bow to pretty much anyone that's older than you and give then blessings and they're suppose to give you money. π I'm the youngest so i LOVED new years and bowing to every member of my family haha. You seem to know the korean culture, that is awesome! And I'll keep that i in mind to post about korean culture, thanks for your comment!
Sarah says
Oh cool, I didn't know there was a korean craze in India, how cool! And yes, I've heard of that channel before! Thanks for your comment and for always reading and commenting on my blog all the way from India! I would love to visit there sometime. π

Oh how fun! If I have a little girl I want her to take Korean dance class π You looked beautiful!
donching says
do try to visit… there are quite a few korean families esp on church missions and few youngsters working and some students too here in Nagaland. if u ever want to visit you are always welcome .. we Nagas are just as hospitable as the koreans π
Sarah says
I love people from India! Maybe because I recently found out my great, great, great grandmother was a princess from India! So i'm part Indian too! Thanks for your welcome, you are so sweet!
Sarah says
